Secular world: My destiny has no taboos

Chapter 261: Snow Mountain God - Xun

'Rustling, rustling...'

The sound, like that of insects crawling, became louder and louder, but after searching everywhere, the crowd could not find any trace of insects.

"What on earth is that thing!" A villager from Xiahe Village couldn't help but whisper.

Although the source of the sound did not appear, a shadow was cast over everyone's heart. This kind of weirdness that cannot be seen and cannot be fought against is the most frightening.

Lin Beixuan's face was calm. He lowered his head and looked at the ground, as if he had penetrated the hard ground in his stomach and saw countless black insects crawling below.

This space is the stomach of the Bitter River God, and what wraps it is the opponent's flesh and blood.

“I didn’t expect it to come to this so soon!”

Lin Beixuan frowned and looked at Gu Yan: "Is everyone here?"

"They're all here." Gu Yan said in a deep voice. He also noticed that these sounds were unusual, like a soul-locking evil spirit, getting closer and closer to them.

Yinggu was also in the crowd holding Ajiu's hand. There were faint traces of tears on her face and her expression was unbelievable.

What happened today brought her too many shocks, from knowing that the people of Xiahe Village had actually eaten people just like those of Shanghe Village, to being attacked by Shanghe Village, and receiving the order for the whole village to flee...

It all happened so fast. Just when she was about to experience despair, she was hit by a huge surprise. She was stunned and looked a little stupid.

Lin Beixuan glanced at the villagers of Xiahe Village, calculating how many people he could take away.

Judging from the various abnormalities in the body of the Bitter River God after his death, they would inevitably encounter many dangers if they wanted to return to the earth. Among the people in Xiahe Village, except Guan Shuo who seemed to have some abilities, the others were just ordinary people.

Ordinary people are the most vulnerable in these troubled times.

The Bitter River God protected them so well.

Luozhou was starving for three years, and they hardly encountered any real danger. Their sense of crisis was even worse than that of the old people and children in Qingyun Village.

It would probably be difficult for such a person to survive the disaster of the Xuanhuang hungry ghost.

How many of them can survive in the end depends on themselves.

Lin Beixuan is not a saint. He might lend a helping hand if he has the strength to do so, but if he cannot guarantee it himself, he will abandon these people without hesitation.

If he couldn't even survive this disaster, even if he rescued the people in Xiahe Village and returned to the ground, he would only cause trouble to his own team in the end.

After all, his essence is to absorb useful talents into his team and expand his base.

Of course, he would give these people the power to choose and let them decide for themselves whether they were willing to follow him.

His gaze returned to Gu Yan.

"Then let's go, don't stay any longer."

"I see."

Gu Yan took a deep breath and took the dagger from Guan Shuo. Under the gaze of everyone, he cut his palm and smeared the blood all over it.

Then he pressed his palm against a closed stone wall.

As his bloody palm touched the stone wall, Lin Beixuan noticed that the cliff behind Xiahe Village suddenly began to move slowly, somewhat like what he had seen in his intestines before.

The stone wall squirmed for a while, and the seemingly hard wall actually became soft, as if some kind of mouthpart was contracting and expanding inward, finally forming a round hole.

After doing all this, Gu Yan seemed to have lost half of his energy and spirit, and became weak and depressed.

He refused the hand that Guan Shuo extended to him, and with his bloody palm he inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner, and placed some grain and pickled meat next to it.

Lin Beixuan watched this scene. Although he knew that time was urgent, he did not urge him. He just let Gu Yan do it slowly.

The people of Xiahe Village believed in God more than they believed in their ancestors. During the ceremony in Guyan, sincerity was written all over everyone's face, even the children.

Lin Beixuan has always respected other people's customs.

But after it was over, his face immediately turned stern.

"hurry up!"

Gu Yan also knew that the situation was urgent, and his movements became noticeably faster after the ceremony.

"This passage leads to the ground. When I first entered here two years ago, I went up to explore it alone. It is relatively safe inside." Gu Yan said.

Lin Beixun nodded and took the lead to step into the cave.

[You have entered a special area: the intestines of the Bitter River God.]

Looking at the prompts coming from the panel in his mind, Lin Beixun kept his expression unchanged and blew the fire stick skillfully.

He didn't know why Gu Yan could open the intestines of the Kuhe God, and could only think that it must be a back door left by the Kuhe God for Gu Yan.

Moreover, this Bitter River God was too kind to Xiahe Village, which completely overturned his previous understanding of secular gods.

As soon as Lin Beixuan entered the intestines of the Kuhe God, the entire Kuhe God's stomach began to vibrate wildly.

The villagers of Xiahe Village looked back and saw a sudden loud noise coming from the direction of Green Lake, and the water splashed up into the sky like a tornado.

Lin Beixuan was in the cave and did not see this scene, but he knew that the seal of the Green Lake was broken.

"That thing is out, let's go!" he immediately shouted to Gu Yan.

Upon hearing this, Gu Yan no longer hesitated. He stretched his neck and roared at the villagers with all his might.

"Let's go!!"

This roar brought back the stunned villagers from Xiahe. Everyone realized that something was wrong and their intestines began to rush rapidly.

"Don't crowd, enter one by one in an orderly manner." Guan Shuo also shouted loudly at this time.

However, his voice was useless in the panicked crowd. Many women and children fell to the ground in the shove, and just as they tried to get up, they were mercilessly stepped on by the people behind them. Lin Beixuan watched this scene coldly, snorted coldly, and quickly reached out to pinch the throat of a middle-aged man who was about to step on Ah Jiu.

"You don't have eyes, can't you see someone fell in front of you?"

The middle-aged man whose throat was grabbed soon saw stars and begged Lin Beixuan for mercy: "My lord, please let me go. I won't dare to do it again."

Most of the villagers in Xiahe Village had seen Lin Beixuan kick Zhang Kuan to death. After witnessing this inhuman strength, no one dared to stand up and accuse Lin Beixuan at this time.

Pulling Ajiu up from the ground, Lin Beixuan stared at everyone who entered the cave with cold eyes.

"I don't want to see anything like this happen again."

"You should think so, too, Village Chief Gu."

Gu Yan had a gloomy face. This stampede incident brought complete disgrace to Xiahe Village.

"These are useless things!"

Gu Yan looked grim. He asked Guan Shuo to help up the women and children who had fallen to the ground, while he quickly walked towards several villagers who were deliberately trampling on the children and hit them hard with his crutch.

Those people knew they were guilty, so they did not dare to resist and allowed Gu Yan to beat them.

After teaching him a lesson, Gu Yancai came to Lin Beixuan gloomily and said, "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Lin Beixuan glanced at Gu Yan, handed Ajiu to his mother, and lit a fire stick and walked towards the deep intestines.

People are indeed incomparable. After experiencing the discipline of the strange people in Qingyun Village, which is comparable to that of an army, the villagers in Xiahe Village at this moment are somewhat unsightly.

……

……

On the other side, the Green Lake River.

A thick column of water shot up into the sky, and countless water droplets fell under the gradually darkening sky.

A huge creature rushed out of the lake like a giant whale. Under its soft ventral fins were thick arms that supported it, allowing it to crawl on the ground like a centipede.

Disaster-hungry dragon fish.

It is pitch black all over, and looks a bit like a toad and a bit like a catfish. Its skin is covered with scales, and its long and thin tail has a barb at the tip, like a scorpion's tail.

After breaking out of the seal of the Green Lake, the hungry dragon fish roared toward the sky. The sound was strange and somewhat like the legendary dragon's roar.

At the same moment after it appeared, something underground seemed to respond to its call. The rustling sound became more intense, and strange bulges appeared on the ground, from which black insects the size of human heads crawled out.

"Hiss..."

These densely packed black insects rushed towards Xiahe Village like a black tide, and any living thing they passed by would be eaten by them.

Fortunately, after Lin Beixuan and others all entered the intestine, the hole closed automatically. When the black bugs and hungry dragon fish found this place by smelling the human scent, only the hard stone wall was left.

After staying in the closed cave for a while, the hungry dragon fish raised its head and sniffed the air, then headed in another direction with countless black insects.

There is the direction of Shanghe Village.

……

Only after hearing the noise outside gradually die down did the people in the intestines dare to hold back their breathing and breathe carefully.

Guan Shuo held a fire starter in his hand and said to the villagers, "Let's go quickly. We have escaped this disaster!"

"Brother Guan, what on earth are those things? The noise sounds so scary." Someone asked, unable to control his trembling body.

Guan Shuo frowned and didn't look back.

"Don't worry about it. The most important thing is to escape from here and catch up with the noble man."

"Yes." Many people nodded in agreement.

They were now extremely grateful that they had entered the cave in advance.

Lin Beixuan walked in front, the firelight illuminating half of his face, outlining his handsome and resolute features.

But his expression was a little bad at this time.

Because the path in the intestine does not go upwards, but downwards.

Moreover, he could clearly feel that the intestine was gradually narrowing, and slowly only a few people could walk side by side, and the rest of the people had to line up and follow behind.

Gu Yan followed Lin Beixuan and told him about the situation on this road.

He had walked this road once, so he had a general impression of it.

"If you keep going along this road, you will pass through a space that is full of water and has only one path for people to pass through."

"Water?" Lin Beixuan was puzzled.

"That water is not normal water. It is highly corrosive. If a person falls into it, his skin and flesh will melt instantly and turn into piles of bones." Gu Yan explained patiently.

"After we pass through that space, the next step is to go upwards. We need to climb over the heart of the Bitter River God and get out through the wound it once suffered."

"That injury was caused by a starving ghost?"

Lin Beixuan raised his eyebrows and asked. He thought his guess was almost right, but Gu Yan shook his head to deny it.

"It's not a starving ghost, but another secular god."

"Yu is also the mountain god of Xuefeng Mountain."
